So I just finished watching the third episode of "Being Mary Jane" and when the wife said this i nearly fell out of my chair. I wanted to slap her so hard.

Such an accomplished woman in her own right and it's like she tied her sense of self worth with her husband...

I know there are women like this but I just don't understand this mentality

Where do you think it comes from? I think it's a cross between low self-esteem and societal views that put pressure on women to get their self-worth from being wifed up, being a wife, etc..

The indoctrination is sad...i know a few women who think like this

do u? Thoughts?

If she is saying 'Who's gonna want me with 2 kids & stretch marks" this means her value and worth in this world is TOO closely tied to the fact that she does or does not have a ´relationship.´ No backbone.
